WINNIPEG, MB – The Winnipeg Blue Bombers are excited with the unveiling of the 2014 CFL schedule, which kicks off the entire CFL season on Thursday, June 26th at Investors Group Field when the Bombers welcome the Toronto Argonauts. Tomas Hertl Jersey . “We are extremely excited with the release of our schedule and our return to the West Division,” said Blue Bomber President and CEO Wade Miller. “For the second straight year, our fans and Investors Group Field will open the CFL season, and we anticipate great things both on the field and in the stands this year.” The warm, summer months of Winnipeg will once again be about Blue Bomber football, with three of the first four games being played here in Winnipeg, including a matchup with the expansion Ottawa REDBLACKS on Thursday, July 3rd, Ottawas first regular season game in franchise history. The Blue Bombers will also welcome rival and Grey Cup champion Saskatchewan Roughriders twice this season, including a Thursday, August 7th contest, and in the Manitoba Lotteries Banjo Bowl on Sunday, September 7th. In all, the popularity of football on Thursdays in Manitobas capital dominates the schedule, as the Bombers will play their first four home games on Thursday evenings, with one Friday night game, one Sunday afternoon game, and three Saturday games. All weekday home games have been moved to 7:30 p.m. kickoff to accommodate fans arriving at Investors Group Field. Evander Kane Sharks Jersey . The 25-year-old native of Milford, Conn., has 18 points in 41 games this season. The five-foot-eight 166-pound centre also has 28 points (10-18) in 15 games with AHL Oklahoma City. San Jose Sharks Jerseys . Vonn had another scary moment at Saturdays World Cup downhill in Val dIsere, ending up clutching her knee in pain after losing her balance and missing a gate. But she gave a reassuring answer shortly afterward, saying no new damage had been done to the surgically repaired knee, and that her plans for the Sochi Olympics were still intact. http://www.officialsharksnhlshop.com/aaron-dell-jersey/ .The other side of the Bruins special teams unit delivered in the end.Gregory Campbell netted the game-winner with less than 10 minutes remaining and the Bruins fended off a late four-minute San Jose power play to earn a wild 5-3 win over the Sharks.Even in the midst of a seven-game losing streak, Winnipeg Blue Bombers rookie head coach Mike OShea remains surprisingly calm and composed. Many wonder, especially after a surprising 5-1 start to the season, how — or even why — the first-year field general still keeps his cool. I dont think it does any good to — certainly, you never panic and certainly it does you no good to rant and rave, said OShea ahead of his clubs home finale against the B.C. Lions on Saturday. I think what you need to do, and what Ive always said is, you need to get a good understanding of why things are happening and how you fix them. The how you fix them part has been a little more challenging than maybe I thought. A franchise now removed from a tumultuous and damaging time that is oft-referred as the Joe Mack Era, OShea has been repeatedly clear that his job is to build this team up — not tear them down. What I do know and what Ive maintained — and then maybe this is the reason why I can — is weve got guys who are working extremely hard, he said. Im not watching our players go out on the field and give poor effort — which would be extremely frustrating — which would cause me to react in a different fashion. What I see is a lot of guys working hard and mistakes that pop up. The changes off the field began near-immediately during last off-season, but the on-field changes tasked to OShea and his coordinators, Gary Etcheverry and Marcel Bellefeuille, continue every week. While Winnipegs playoff chances (albeit, slim as can be) remain intact, new players are inserted into the starting lineup on a weekly basis since the beginning of October. This week is no different for the 6-10 club. Its good when youre finally getting comfortable with the system and you can play at a fast speed, said receiver Justin Wilson, who will make his first career professional start in place of injured slotback Nick Moore (knee), just three weeks after signing to Winnipegs practice roster. Its a lot to get used to. Its a little different than the American game, but this is all football at the end oof the day… Ive been talking with (quarterback Drew Willy) a lot after practice, just getting little timing things down. Custom San Jose Sharks Jerseys. Last week it was O-lineman Jace Daniels, after spending just 10 days in Canada before getting the start at left tackle for the injured Glenn January. With the veteran January returning from two games off with a back injury, Daniels, assumedly having left a positive impression on the coaching staff in his first pro start, will line up at right tackle for Devin Tyler, who was in a walking-boot this week with turf toe. But personnel arent the only changes. Etcheverrys defence ran some plays with four linebackers and just three down-linemen in practice this week, possibly to get a look at new linebacker Will Smith alongside the teams starting middle linebacker, Ian Wild. Definitely, a lot of guys have been trying to help me out, said Smith, inked to the practice roster just a week before his first CFL game against Calgary on October 18, where he played exclusively on special teams. Ill definitely be helping out a lot more on defence than I was last week. I have a lot more responsibilities on the defensive side of the ball, as well as the special teams aspect. Notes: Demond Washington is out this week with a suspected concussion suffered in a knee-to-helmet collision against Calgary last week. Desia Dunn, formerly the teams starting weak side linebacker, moves to Washingtons halfback spot, while Don Unamba remains on the weak side following an impressive 10-tackle debut where the special-teams ace added an interception… Return specialist Troy Stoudermire, fresh off the six-game injured list where his season was thought to be lost to a toe injury, returns to the lineup this week. Interestingly, the backup defensive back has been seen hanging around the offence while recovering from injury and dawned a white practice jersey along with the rest of the offence this week. Stoudermire was converted to defence in his final year at the University of Minnesota after playing three collegiate seasons as a receiver. ' ' '
